Public Health

专业详情

The Master of Public Health is a Schoolwide degree program. The rigorous curriculum prepares students to become leading public health professionals capable of addressing current global health problems with multidisciplinary, evidence-based approaches.

During the program, students interact with public health faculty members renowned for teaching, practice and ongoing research around the world. In this diverse and collaborative learning environment, students learn as much from each other as they do from their coursework.

MPH students benefit from a flexible curriculum, online and onsite options, hundreds of courses taught by 1,500+ faculty and RA opportunities with projects in 67 countries.

The program culminates in a capstone project that applies competencies and skills acquired through the program to a public health problem relevant to a student’s professional goals and interests.

Graduates become part of the largest MPH alumni network across the globe.

The overarching goal of the MPH Program is to provide students with a population perspective on health. The Johns Hopkins MPH Program is designed to:

• prepare students to tackle current and emerging global public health problems
• provide students with critical multidisciplinary training to help solve global health problems
• equip students with foundational public health knowledge and competencies

Students are required to complete a core MPH curriculum that comprises approximately 45-50 of the 80 credits required for graduation. Students have flexibility to customize the remaining elective credits of their curriculum to their areas of interest to achieve an appropriate balance between depth and breadth.
